Marvel's Avengers have grown from a single team to a full-blown franchise, with early spinoffs like West Coast Avengers giving way to the current crop, which sports modifiers like "New," "Mighty," "Young," "A.I." and even "World." But some U.K. fans felt at least one version of the Avengers was missing ... so they made their own.

Avengers UK is a "'just for fun non-profit' fan-based fiction," where a group of Marvel's British-based heroes unite to fight evil. According to writer/artist Darren Wilson, in Avengers UK you can "see spectacular battles, amazing abilities and standards of queuing up in a way that only residents of the U.K. can truly achieve (except maybe not the last one)!"

As seen above, the primary Avengers UK team is Captain Britain, Pete Wisdom, Dark Angel and Motormouth, although the comic has teased other members -- both memorable and arcane in Marvel and Marvel UK continuity.

Avengers UK is currently in its third issue, and is available for free on its Facebook page.
